Strengths
- “Pupils are very happy at this school.”
- “They told inspectors that the school is a kind and caring place to be.”
- “Older pupils play their part in creating a positive environment by serving as ‘buddies’ for children in the Reception Year.”
To improve
- “That said, where the curriculum is not as well embedded, some pupils have not acquired the same deep, rich body of knowledge in these subjects as they have in others.”
- “With some subject curriculums being new, the school is still refining some curriculum content to better suit its individual context.”
- “The school is still developing its thinking to adapt the delivery of some curriculum subjects to suit the needs of pupils, including those with SEND.”
